It's freeeeee
Downloading this, how is it?
Christ, haven't touched this game since 10 Jan. I actually like the PvP, although I don't play competitive.
Game is unironically dying right now because new season just started and it's the worst its ever been.
It's shit.
It looks decent but that's about it.
Is it worth $0.00?
There's a lot of content to go through as a newblight but once you hit endgame you realize how lazy and repetitive it all is, and the grind is brutal.
If you need to waste time for a week while hiding from corona-chan you could do worse i guess.
No
You'll get some fun out of it for free so go for it. Look up a guide on what to do and in what order and you'll probably have 50 hours of content to go through
Don't buy any of the other shit. MAYBE forsaken if you really liked the game (because forsaken is actually pretty good) but none of this new seasonal content is worth it. In fact it's in its worst state it's ever been because this drip fed content model is pure cancer
Great music, art style, and very solid shooting, but it's a brutal grind
Thanks
even reddit and twitch agree that the game was somehow better under Activision control.
Destiny 1 was better
"f2p"
>pay 40 for the full game
lol yea right
Have to be social to see endgame content. None of my friends play it. Realized I'd only be grinding alone without socializing. Nah, fuck that.
Finally a game the jannies can enjoy.
>pay 40 for the full game
Full game is free, expansions costs extra
40 is for the season passes
I fucking love trials bros
and Saint loves you
I played it free last year and it was fun but I quit as soon as I hit the level max and the main story ended. Then I played a different character class and did it again. I had a really good time with it. Very enjoyable experience.
Based
It's circling the drain right now becaues the current season's content amounts to a watered down version of the previous season's content, while resources were devoted to bringing back a shit PvP mode very few people wanted (it was removed from the game in the first place because nobody fucking liked it), and they even managed to fuck that up.
I'm convinced the good parts of the series had little to do with Bungie, as The Taken King and Forsaken were both co-developed with another studio under Activision. The people in charge have no fucking idea what they're doing, dev time is mismanaged and everything is leaning heavily into trying to get people to buy cosmetics.
I like Destiny gunplay but fuck there is just too much bullshit fluff to grind .
better Halo gameplay with the worst possible everything-else-that-isn't-gameplay, MMO questshit, and awful multiplayer balance
Bungie already fired all the important people. They might as well be 343.
It's OK.
Bunghole are nothing like 343i. 343i is based and develops games that are worth your time. Bunghole develops Chinese skinnerboxes and fucks over Marty O'Donnell.
PvE is the standard looter shooter. PvP is unbalanced, but fun.
Whatever is free I was charged 40$ for (Base game + 2 DLCs). I didn't get anything when it became F2P and so I won't give Bungie more money.
fucking boring.
no friends that play it.
no idea how to voice chat in the game, much less text chat. Just walking around the same fucking boring ass areas to unlock other boring ass areas.
Oh you found somewhere that looks cool to go? You need 3 other people and you all have to be the same character build and you aren't that character build so you can't actually get there.-the game.
I love it.
Super fun.
Dont have any other games i play regularly, everything seems like shit compared to it, especially all those retarded battle royale games my friends want me to like.
tried CoD Warzone yesterday, it only reminded me how much i fucking hate battle royale.
You'll have heaps of fun in Destiny, trust me.
stop now, download warframe, download anything else
Didn't season pass once mean that you get all the dlc in the future?
guess it doesn't count for my newer steam? at 272 hours on there
>warframe
lmao, come on, lets be serious.
I said literally anything else, man.
its pretty meh
the new season is shit, the game is only fun if you have friends and its only occasionally fun. pvp has a lot of cheaters and bullshit weapons/abilities that people use. pve is very easy and the enemy ai is simple, not like halo where the enemies react on what is happening around them. there are some retarded design decisions and stupid shit as well.
source: me and my 985 hours played
It's a AAA version of Warframe, and gets boring just about as quickly.
Once upon a time, yes.
Now you only get "seasonal content" ie Questline(s), XP boost and random stuff from leveling unlike F2P dudes.
It's 10 bucks per 3 months
>get it for free on PSN
>enjoyed all of bungie's halos but didn't play the 343 games
>begin
>marvelesque shitty cutscene with stupid quips
>Enemies have worse AI than in Halo 1. They just run towards you
>shoot the same enemies for ten minutes
>get bored
>uninstall
>It's 10 bucks per 3 months
and not worth that
Couldn't agree more
only play it if you intend to dedicate your life to it
>dedicate your life to it
How so?
You can get your gear up in two weeks and after that its just doing the weekly activities.
Unless you PVP
It's shit
It's fucked up. Devs decided to make everyone's game start from the end, character has maximum level, and there are only 6 missions to accomplish.
From someone who played and dropped it because it consumed too much time, there's way too many fucking activities if you PVP. And why the fuck would you play this game if you don't also PVP.
Also avoid the Yas Forums clans unless you enjoy pure concentrated neckbeards talking about how they hate their "wives" and how much they hate niggers 24/7
I only do the PvP weeklies and occasional beer and pretzel nights with friends.
Mostly enjoy the PvE aspect of it with friends.
I actually kinda like the PvP but I don't really see point playing it constantly
>avoid the Yas Forums clans
That's granted in any game and/or activity.
Game is immeasurably more enjoyable with friends, but we're talking Yas Forums here, OP likely has no friends.
>granted
Debatable, generally they're coarse, but people don't actively spout vitriol at each other for no reason and the skill level tends to be above average (although with how mainstream Yas Forums is nowadays, I suppose that's questionable as well). I've had my best times in gaming playing with idiots from Yas Forums, but the fucks playing this game are a special brand of edgelords. Made me feel like I'm right back on Yas Forums in the late 1990's. The CS:S partyvan era (fuck you Mike you cancerous jew for destroying what we had so you could line your pockets by selling admin perks to retards), and SCP:SL were unironically some of the best times I've had playing video games.
>/dg/ fags
>edgelords
the handful that still play just spout shitty twitter/tumblr memes and are massive attention whore
I tried to play with Yas Forums plenty of times between 2010-2013 and around then majority of people I met was meme spouting assburgers.
The only times I met chill people was in Minecraft.
I bet the people and the mentality has changed since then but I won't be wasting any more time with that shit
The f2p has at least 100 hours of stuff to do without any grinding. It's fun if played casually.
>Game is immeasurably more enjoyable with friends
This, I wouldn't even bother playing this game if I didn't have someone to play it with. It's very obviously designed to be played with others, what with fireteams going up to 3 players and there being 3 main classes. That's also the best way to experience the loot progression system and reduce the grinding to next to nothing, because all the players grinding for higher tier rewards and rolls are doing so only because they don't have a good team to tackle harder boss fights with.
I've never played a "looter shooter" before. Downloaded this and while the game is beautiful and the gunplay is really excellent, it doesn't personally do it for me. Nothing makes me want to continue playing. The jumping is cool. Dungeons are too.
t. fantasy MMORPG fag
DONT' FALL FOR IT
BUNGIE IS SHIT
THEY ASK YOU 10$ EACH 3 MONTHS FOR DRIPFED CONTENT
THEY TRICK YOU SAYING "IT'S FREE" AND THEN THEY LOCK HALF OF THE GAME BEHIND A PAYWALL
It's shit but the gunplay is fun. the game entire game is just about shooting sponge enemies and meme meta PVP. and it has a great PVE+PVP gamemode called gambit. if you're actually willing to give it a try then do the available raids when you're about to quit since they're the highlight point of destiny for me personally. D1>D2 by miles, such a shame that destiny is a wasted potential of a game.
>THEY TRICK YOU SAYING "IT'S FREE" AND THEN THEY LOCK HALF OF THE GAME BEHIND A PAYWALL
Well of course, the production values are too high for them to just give everything away for free. As it stands, there's already a ton of shit that's free. All three campaigns, all of the patrol zones and most of what's on them, and all the strikes and pvp modes are free. You don't have to play for the meta either, I enjoy playing the game for what it is.
BUT, it really helps to be playing with someone. I rarely play alone. It's so much better with someone else. You have access to a better experience with a fireteam.
The is literally NUMENERA IN SPACE. It's not the first game that does this.
Can someone explain what makes this game attractive other than its shitty gambling mechanics that draws in the players?
The game is fun at first despite the awful capeshit writing (that doesn't matter much because the whole story is skipped by default so all you have to deal with are the awful jokes between shooting segments), but the grind loop is seriously dull and makes no sense (best stuff is super easy to get, the mediocre stuff is a pain in the dick to farm so why bother), and honestly I can't stand this "all new content have an expiration date and will be deleted" model, especially because you have to pay $10 to actually access said new content. It's like buying a DLC that will be uninstalled automatically after 3 months.
And the game isn't actually free like the usual F2P shooter, you will just play a big demo with some inevitable paywall. At one point I found a hidden chest while fucking around in the first world and all I got from it was a "BUY THE FORSAKEN DLC TO GET THIS EPIC LOOT" pop-up.
>cut off from activision
>Bungie makes the game free
>still ask you to buy 40$ of dlc
>and 10$ for the battlepass so you can do their shitty mode that will go away at the end of it
>they doubled down on the eververse store
>put on the store the cosmetic stuff that looks like rewards from dungeons/raids on a looter shooter game
>they want to make the gun obsolete after a while
>unable to balance pve and pvp separately so they always fuck PVE when they nerf shit on pvp
>this update is 10$ for more bounty grinding
>the main source for exp is not playing the game but just grinding bounties non stop
>PvP is a fucking mess but now it's a bit fun with autorifle melting handcannon cunt
>first flawless of trials of osiris won by fucking hackers
>Gambit prime bugged so fucking hard that if someone levels up the game crashes
>SRL cut from the game because of streamers
>you had to be there mentality that ruins the game
and this is what, half of the issues with the game?
and there's more but i don't want to bother if you're not reading it
proof that i'm not shitposting
>The game is fun at first despite the awful capeshit writing
Enough of this buzzword shit. Seriously, Destiny is literally Bu give attempt at making Spelljammers and Planescape game. It's still absolute shit though. Bungie clearly has no creativity
>plays great
>looks and sounds great
>co-op
>like 100hrs of f2p stuff to play
>patrol zones and raids are fun
>Bumgie attempt
Fixed
Not that user but there are many f2p games that does this user...
I don't like how most of them play or look as much as this game
>patrols
>fun
?????
I think Bungie Destiny was their attempt at making a Space Pulp game user (Bungie said it wanted to be in the same category of fame as Star Wars) but the problem is as you already said Bungie has no creativity at all.
I'll have to agree with the other dude. Vanilla destiny 2 is pretty much capeshit bait for big audiences. They realized it was the worst cancer possible and toned it down for subsequent releases. Forsaken was pretty cool and nowadays lore is also somewhat decently handled
That said I disagree with the rest. This shit gives you like 100 hours of content (quality could be argued) and you actually get some free features from paid expansions
Not many free games have that kind of gameplay mechanics and stuff
